Chapter 10, Problem 56RQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The final temperature of gas is to be calculated.

Concept Information:

The relation between temperature, pressure and volume of a gas is determined by combined gas law equation.

The combined gas law equation for a gas is given by the following expression:

$\frac{P_1{V}_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2{V}_2}{T_2}$

Here, $T_1$ is the initial temperature of the gas, $P_1$ is the initial pressure of the gas, $V_1$ is the initial volume of the gas, $T_2$ is the final temperature of the gas, $V_2$ is the final volume of the gas and $P_2$ is the final pressure of the gas.

The combined gas law equation is derived by combining Boyle’s law, Charles’ law and Gay-Lussac’s law.

Convert the Celsius into Kelvin by using the expression as:

$T\left(\text{K}\right)=T\left({}^{\circ }\text{C}\right)+273$
